Answer:
Last week her sales were <u>$4500</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Danielle earns a 7.25% commission on everything she sells at the electronics store where she works.
She also earns a base salary of $750 per week.
Her total earnings for the week were $1,076.25.
Now, to find her sales last week.
Let the sales of last week be
Base salary = $750.
Total earnings = $1076.25.
So, we deduct the base salary from the total earnings first:
Thus, the rest of the earnings is $326.25 which is the 7.25% commission on sales.
Now, to get the sales of last week we put an equation:
<em>Multiplying both sides by 100 we get:</em>
<em>Dividing both sides by 7.25 we get:</em>
The sales of last week = $4500.
Therefore, last week her sales were $4500.
